The motivation of my design stems from the feeling of expressing my ideas from my mind. In my opinion it is quite important to imagine what an idea looks like and then implenment into a media using softwares such as adobes and rhino. In the course Digital Design I learnt to use grasshopper to model and fabricate, and use unreal enigine to present works. Talking about the aspirations of my works in semester 1, the research on precedent study Barkow Leibinger Summer House teached me a lot of threshold and circulation strategies. Therefore I tried to play with light in M2 part A, that one layer of 2d patterns and another layer of 3d pattern shade and affect each other to create light effect. Also I tried to define the threshold for a narrative in part B, the changing gradient of mass could influnce the change of threshold. By reviewing my own work at the end of this course, I find my concepts of most works are able to be refined, for example the parametric element in module 2, also I find that is caused by the lack of grasshopper skill, causing compromising concept and doability, therefore maybe improving my digital skill further more could my works much better.

Precedent Study The Barkow Leibinger Summer House, one of the serpentine pavilion in 2016. Using steel frame and plywood panels to build a structure with continuous curves. Different levels of panel sit on each other, some parts are intentionally distorted and not keep in one level, resulting the canopy project downward complex shadows. Pavilion is facing 360, mean to be stand on the high ground and viewing around, taking same concept as the Queen Caroline’s temple. The summer house has features of a tree. The vertical roof is like tree canopy, which is not able to cover everything under shade, but give possibilities for the passengers. 3
Isometric view of digital model, built in rhino accord with elevations and plan. By building the model of precedent, I could learn the details of this pavilion, like myself have been there already. When I had enough understanding of the space inside of this pavilion, then I could understand the threshold and circulation that the architects given to it.
The concept of Barkow Leibinger summer house is from Queen Caroline’s temple by Williams Kent, which built on top of a hill, higher than surrounding views, Barkow and Leibinger drawn the 360 degrees idea to build this summer house. The pavilion does not have a formal entrence or exit. But threshold still exist, when passengers walk into the boundary on the ground, which correspond with the boundary of canopy, pedestrians could sense that they have walk into a different space. Seats, give habitable space for people, within the space under canopy, but differentiated by functions. Also shadow can be seen as threshold, the vertically arranged walls bring shadow in a dynamic way, like a real living tree.

M2
Generating Design Through Digital Processes Exploring digital fabrication and parametric software through two tasks. Task A requires to work on surface and laser cutting tecniques. Task B works with volumn and 3D printing tecniques. Also the iterative nature of digital design and workflows from design to physical models have been tested.

Panelling

(-64,-30,85)
The Panelling is exactly “50 by 50“ ratio of 2d and 3d patterns, but it was not the main intention. The intention was creating a 3D panel
This unusual waffle is created for reasons. Firstly the surface is too curvy to use the “contour“ command, some small and uncontinuous componets are created. Also the assignment asked to, avoiding waffles to be seen from outside, therefore I was wondering using gridlines to loft the waffle, which can perfectly suit the holes of panels.
of triagulations that have holes can be see through, and show the 2D panels. The key idea is variation of the surface, while holes of 3D panel are changing, 2D pattern in audience’s sight is changing as well.

There is a very convenient function in lunch box called “unroll brep“, by using this you can unroll panels from grasshopper. But tabs still need to be done in rhino.

The special quality that I concern with my outcome is the quality of spiral can bring me and the special cantilever caused by the sphere “container�. The gradient change caused the very facinating mass varation. Very thick at the bottom, thin in the middle, and suddenly thick again at top, top and bottom interlock each other create a fullfilled space too.

Circulation Audience sight gather space
When fully folded, the space for audience is an open, display space, you can imagine how the audience could enter into this space by pre-set circulation and observe the event happening in the pavillion, in the meanwhile the folded panels can be the perfect background for performers. When the pavilion is entirely spread into a circle, it becomes a sheltered space, that small openings still allow people enter from all directions, also which create framing views, audience’s sights are mean to be able to extend alone the landscape to St Kilda Rd or Queen Victoria’s garden.

Trying to apply parametric pattern on the surfaces, and finding it being too bionic.
The first approach started from a bionic pavilion that intimate the organic shape of one blossom flower.
Using abstract mass chaging and another kinetic system to approach the organic idea.
